annanay1 14 Posted July 16, 2018 Hi! So after buying a ton of Vitamins off if amazon(few hundred dollars worth☹️😳😳) I realized I just can’t deal with swallowing or melting them in my mouth🤢 I decided to purchase the Patches on PatchMD after all. I read great reviews on them. This is my first day trying them. I bought the Bariatric 2 set(4 patches) and put 2 on left higher arm, 1 on right higher arm and one on right side of stomach. The ones on my arms burn a bit or feel sensitive. Has anyone experienced this and is it ok? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aj_flame 1 Posted July 16, 2018 I don’t have any burning, i often wonder if they are working :) i put mine on my thighs, the glue was too good and sometimes would pull the skin off on my inner arms Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swatkins4 6 Posted July 17, 2018 I am day 7 post op. I just ordered the vitamin patches as well. I will have to let you know when I start trying them. My skin is very sensitive so I hope it works out for me. I too couldn't see ingesting another thing. 1 clsumrall reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lisa K. 62 Posted July 18, 2018 I love the convenience of them. Also not having to take a handful of supplements. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I put them on my stomach...for no particular reason than I can easily reach There is residue from the adhesive sometimes, but all in all doing great. I added the Biotin because I was losing SO MUCH hair. Got me back on track and now I have to keep up with my hair dye because its growing quickly! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am expecting the delivery today, but I won't start until Sunday. I was thinking of trying my hip first until the stitches come out. One less thing to worry about in the stomach area!! I added Biotin as well, thanks for the information. I also purchased Biotin Shampoo to help prepare for the Hair loss. 2 clsumrall and fargosk reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
